Being here has brought me to a knowledge both tangible and ineffable, of a world apart, completely distinct, from that of my own kind. - David M Carroll, Following the Water.
The 'here' is the waterlands that the author has been wading in at certain times every year for almost 2 decades, watching and documenting the various turtles. Since most of them are the same ones, there is a meaning to his work, resulting in a study.
He overlooks the color blue of the sky in the water,to see what is under that. Much is being done by the way of conserving nature and wildlife, but we, the general public should find that 'world apart'.
